Review summary

We boarded the ship and right away started having fun. Delicious drinks were being served while we were waiting to gain access to our room and set sail. Each day of the cruise brought a new adventure both on board and at the ports.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
The food was great, dining rooms were so beautiful and we really enjoyed the buffets as well. No long lines and plenty of choices.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
My son went down the slides 205 times he had so much fun. The outside movies with free popcorn was perfect relaxation for me. And my wife loved the hot tubs and serenity for adults. Putt-putt was awesome as well. He also loved the kids camp and game room, we spent $100 on two fidget spinners lol he cried on that one .

Entertainment

5 out of 5
All night jam fest it was so much fun to see the piano bar, stand-up comedy was so funny, dancing and ice carving, the hairy chest completion just so much to do it was overwhelming fun. And one of the best Cruise Directors that was everywhere we thought he had clones Orlando was awesome.

Children's Programs

The camp was great my son had so much fun up there and me and my wife went and relaxed in Serenity for 3hrs just to get away for awhile.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Hands down this guy went above and beyond to make sure we did not want for anything. Greeted us every morning with a smile and handshake. Room looked amazing everyday turn down service was top notch. Komang is the #1 Steward on the ship we thank him for all his hard work.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The ship was so beautiful and massive make sure you have some good walking shoes because you will need them. We walked 7.1 miles in one day just exploring lol. The art on the wall to the atrium under the slide just amazing.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
The room was perfect as well we have a family of 3 and the room was laid out just right. King sized bed and my son was in a sofa bed that I even laid in for the night so he could catch the sunrise with his mom. just a great view all around and Komang kept it smelling awesome.

Ship tip

Have plenty of sunscreen, some good walking shoes, take some swim shoes as well they keep the deck dry but their are wet spots. And pace yourself it is so much to do on there you might not want to get off. But for the most part remember your on vacation have fun no time for fussing or fighting let the kids let loose and you and mommy do the same.

Disembarkation

Sounds like a perfect start to a cruise. Did you buy a round for your shipmates?
